Morning for me, although I find night is a close second. Night doesnt jive too well with the real job though since I cant stay up too late.

And I don't mean goals like "make lots of money and retire young." Great goal, but worthless without a path to get there. Im talking about setting daily and weekly goals. I don't do this on my personal projects (and at work they are done for you) but I think I'm going to start. Basically...

Does anyone have experience with colocated servers? Im trying to think down the road to a point where I will need my own dedicated box, and it seems for the long haul colocated would be the better value. Higher initial investment, but less expensive over the long haul. Is there anything else...

When running a site where you can add a subscription based part, is it better to add the subscription part immediately, or build up a user/reader base and then roll out the subscription option (like this site).

A buddy of mine mentioned how Google's server layout is somewhat unique in that it uses tens of thousands of low end servers to do the majority of its work as opposed to really high end expensive servers. For some reason I just thought of it a few days ago, and had a quick look around. The...

What 5 websites do you have to visit every day. news sites, sites for fun, anything goes. But your top 5. Mine are: Google (google homepage, gmail, etc.) questionablecontent.net (webcomic a friend showed me awhile ago) fidelity (finance stuff) cnn (and their associated subdomains) espn So...

Since quite a few people here have their own companies for their web based ventures, I was wondering what peoples basic business plans are?

Say what you will about microsoft, I'm pretty excited that they jumped into the open source ring. Now google, yahoo and mircrosoft will all be sharing at least some of their projects. As a developer theres no bad way to spin this. http://www.codeplex.com/

What project is your current "pet" project. It might not see the light of day, but its something you work on because its fun, it has possibilities, but youre not banking on it making you millions. My current project is my custom cms. Granted, Im getting ready to release sites using it, but...

I usually do my sites with apache running, but I have to do one in IIS shortly and Im wondering if there is an equivalent to mod_rewrite in IIS? Or how do folks who develop using IIS get around that type of thing?

Im looking into making a website for an associate who won't really have the option of running a database. Since I really would rather not do static html pages, I'm trying to look into another solution and I've come up with doing an XML system. Has anyone done this, or know of any good...

Anyone write their sites using java and associated technologies? Ive been looking to start dabbling in it, and Im curious as to peoples experience with it. I currently use PHP, so if anyone has used both and can offer some opinions on each, thatd be great.

Looks like digg finally expanded out of just technology. Any predictions on how successful the other categories will be? I think the technology will still be far and away the most successful because of the types of readers. Technology readers tend to be more web-savy and spend more time...

What are peoples preferred shopping cart software? Ive started looking around at them, and noticed quite a few ones included for free on fantastico, while others have a license fee of a couple dollars to a couple hundred. To people who have used the software, what's your favorite and why?

I was browsing the google adsense blog and ran across this from a few days ago http://adsense.blogspot.com/2006/05/introducing-adsense-api-beta.html anyone in this and if so what are your thoughts? This really makes it tempting to set up a free web page builder and let people use adsense in...

I haven't seen much press around for this, and I was just wondering if anyone has had experience. My first impression would be it probably won't be worth it since they don't get the volume (and may not get the advertisers) that yahoo and google get, but has anyone had significant experience...

Does anyone here do their sales through a dropshipper? I've just recently been reading up on it, and it seems like there are some real possibilities there, but I was hoping someone with some significant experience on it could share some tips and strategies.

Seeing as google is getting ready to launch gbuy, anyone have any thoughts on this? Im curious to see how they integrate it, but I don't think it will be able to replace paypal since its already backed by ebay.

mod_rewrite is one of the most important seo tools you have. Its an extremely powerful accessory, and unfortunately can also be extremely complicated. These are some simple lines you can put in your .htaccess file for some simple rewriting. First, add this at the very top of your file. It...
